Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The present invention relates to a method of monitoring and optionally controlling removal of microplastics from microplastic containing raw water, drinking water, storm water, water originating from melted snow, surface water, effluent of industrial wastewater treatment plants, effluent of municipal wastewater treatment plants, industrial process water, using at least one coagulant and/or polymer, wherein the number of microplastic particles of the microplastic containing water before and/or after addition of said at least one coagulant and/or polymer is determined by using an optical measurement measuring light scattering and fluorescence of particles in a predetermined volume of the microplastic containing water.
